60% before the 70s like i predicted :jawalrus:

I flirted with putting Brazil on my list and the day the earth stood still

I almost put it in my HM.

i wanna re-watch it.. i loved the first half and the world of the movie on first viewing but was kinda underwhelmed by the rest..but it's stuck with me the past few months..i think it's a grower

Yep you knew I had to show love to the golden age of sci-fi: the 1950s...and I had about 6 more movies from that period I love, but those 2 on the list are masterpieces, especially when you put them into context of the time they were made

They are perfect films...these are the only 13 films I consider worthy of being on this list...if I added tv specials and stuff, I would add the Martian Chronicles
Yeah, I do need to rewatch Brazil. I just remember it getting a little fukking weird/stupid/crazy towards the end. Of course I expect a little crazy from Gilliam but there is a fine line.
